I grew up in Oklahoma and have lived in Wyoming, Texas, and Georgia before moving to Iowa where I now live. I have hunted with everything between a BB gun and a .454 Casull Pistol, .50 cal muzzleloader, .375 H&H magnum rifle, traditional archery, compound bows and now a crossbow. I love to hunt and target shoot. I currently hunt about 60 days a year, mostly for whitetails with archery gear. Most of that is our local city hunt for does. Would love to go back elk hunting since I haven't in over 25 years! My first trip to Africa (bucket list item for over 50 years) happened in 2013 with my youngest son. We had a blast and cannot wait to go back!
